Another book I devoured at my library in the late 70's was this gem, also from Crown Publishing. Like its Superman volume, this was chock full of reprints spanning the then 30 year history of the Dark Knight. Featuring an intro by then DC president Carmine Infantino, this book features such great work by Bob Kane, the very underrated Jack Burnley, Shelly Moldoff, Jerry Robinson, Dick Sprang, Win Mortimer, Carmine Infantino, Irv Novick, and Neal Adams. Even Superman great Curt Swan tried his hand at Batman, drawing the story originally published in Batman #118. Needless to say, this book was a major part of my childhood and I was thrilled to get a copy at a very good price a few years ago.
